@slantsick: These cars are tough, but not invincible, and folks have died. It's just that the average was so low that it rounded down to zero.

Andrewpetty

]]> <![CDATA[Move Aside, LeMons Teams: Evil Genius On Board!]]> A cage in a car that came from the factory with a reinforced roof and door-beams; possibly the only car model that has never had a fatal accident? Sounds like a lotta work for nothing to me.

Gotta keep "The Man" happy I suppose.

I love that the safety gear on the LeMons racers is likely worth several times the "value" of the car.

Seriously, if I were one of the admins of the race, I'd exercise the "buy it for $500" rule and cut the cages out of these things.
